Do not join this site. Webmaster has ridiculous rules about download limits and kicks people off the site. I was kicked off after being billed for my second month, two emails and a week later I still do not know why. I tried to follow the strict guidelines to using the site, but was still kicked out - after they took my second month membership fee of course. If I did something wrong why not notify me up front and give me a warning? I feel I was just ripped off.

This is a huge network of high quality solo websites. You can either join via the girlsí individual website, or direct via Bella Pass Ė either way you get instant access to every site in the network.

Content is all dated and downloadable. The network takes a hard line against piracy Ė thereís a download limit of 20gb per 24 hour, and theyíre clear and transparent about their policies with warnings before and after you join, and in the confirmation email you receive.

Browsing the network, you have the following categories across the top:

(WMV doesnít appear to be available for Bryciís newer hardcore content)

Photos are normally 4000px on their widest side, although 1500px on candid galleries.

SUMMARY OF EACH SITE/GIRL:

BRYCI is the most popular girl on the network on the basis of content alone. She is absolutely stunning and has an incredible body. Her boobs are fake but despite being gigantic donít appear disproportionately large.

Her site is mainly stripteasing and softcore such as masturbation/toys, but she is making her first moves into hardcore with two videos already posted within the last week. Both have been artistically shot, but itís the perfect tease as they introduce us to hardcore Bryci, and future videos will show everything, including POV.

In addition to this, there is lots and lots of behind the scenes footage, candids and a regularly updated blog. Bryciís site on its own is one of the finest solo sites out there.

KATIE BANKS is a curvy but slim big-boobed babe with bags of confidence. Her site is the second-largest on the network with a great mix of videos, photos and bonus content. You can read more about Katie Banks in my review.

TALIA SHEPARD is cast from the same mould as Katie and Bryci. Her site is packed with photos, videos but also candids and behind the scenes footage. Like Katie and Bryci, she has substantial fake boobs, but unlike those two, she got hers mid-way through the site. Approximately 70% of the galleries include her fake boobs, the rest feature her more natural (and rather lovely!) cleavage.

LEXI MASON is, unlike the other models here, petite and all natural. She is an absolute stunner with a gorgeous complexion, perky boobs and is a refreshing change from her less natural colleagues. Unfortunately her site shows up one of the weaknesses with Bella Pass in that it seems a bit overlooked compared to the Ďbig threeí Ė her site is relatively new, and regularly updated (once a week), but not quite with the regularity of the others.

HUNTER LEIGH is also a relatively new model to the network. The content is softer (no toys/masturbation/spreading), but she's stunning,. Her website doesn't have much content yet, and lacks the bonus features from the other sites. You can read more about Hunter Leigh in my review.

MONROE LEE is a pretty blonde with a massively curvy body and fake boobs. Although her site includes pictures and videos, it is no longer being updated and quality isnít up to the standard of other sites in the network. Itís not bad, but it feels a lot more amateur, and although this is a great bonus site, itís hard to be too enthusiastic about a model when the site is no longer updating.

AVA DAWN is another big-breasted babe. Her site is no longer updating but there is a good amount of great quality content available, including webcam archives and behind the scenes footage. Like Monroeís site, this is a great bonus site on top of five that are regularly being updated.

- Fairly large network of 6 solo model sites and 1 multi-model site.
- High quality on nearly all sites.
- Network is an even better value if you like the models that have a high amount of content. I will list amounts of content for each site in the BL.
- Seems to be quite a bit of interaction with the models.
- Download speeds will vary from site to site, but never drops to a bad level.
- Navigation is excellent for a network, it includes and easy to use drop-down box that allows you to move from site to site without the hassle of signing in on each.
- I personally find all of the models attractive.
- No cross-sales on registration and ads are non-existent in members area as well. It's one of those sites that should get some bonus points for clean site design without annoyances.
- There is some, though not a lot, more hardcore scenes on the sites. So it's not all just softcore or just masturbation.

Cons:

- The webmaster explained in replies of my Bryci review. There are no photo zips. If nothing else, I feel like it should be mentioned since photo collectors will see that as a dealbreaker.
- Download limit has been raised to 12 GB per day and I really don't see it as that bad unless you download the 1920x1080 files. I've somehow found moderation in my downloading over the years and am having no trouble with the download limit.

Bottom Line:

I did a separate review for the Bryci site which is included in this network. I felt like it was quite a bit better than the other sites and deserved it's own standalone review. First thing I'm going to do is list the numbers for each site. I will count these numbers by using a manual method of X amount of scenes per page multiplied by number of pages. I will use this method of describing them (standard video = masturbation/tease. BTS = Behind the Scenes. Webcam = webcam archive)

If you notice one model missing, Renna Ryan, the content was up the first few days I was a member, now the site is giving me a "content not available" message when I sign in. She also is no longer listed in the BellaGirls, so I guess that was just bad timing since it was there just a few days ago.

I bring this up because Renna was an extra selling point for me since I have always liked her. On the other hand, the site was relatively small and the last 6-8 videos were during her pregnancy. Overall, her site was a disappointment so I don't think you're going to miss it much.

If you will also notice, several of the models have more webcam archived videos than anything else. I do like these, but there's no way, short of watching everyone of them to say what percentage is just talking or teasing or masturbation.

I was not familiar with any of these models except the aforementioned Renna Ryan and Talia Shepard. Talia's site is above average, so if you like her it's worth noting that it's one of the bigger sites on the network. I even found a new one I'll be watching for more content of, Ava Dawn, who I wasn't the least bit familiar with.

I went to the oldest videos on each site and it looks like all standard videos have the full selection of video options. I'll list them again:
MP4 - 1920x1080, 1280x720, 640x360
WMV - 1920x1080, 1280x720, 640x360
Flash - 900x506
3GP - 352x288

As I mentioned in the Bryci review, I prefer the Flash ones for the combination of good quality and the files are not overly large. If anyone has trouble playing Flash videos, I use either VLC or Windows Media Classic Home Cinema.

The content mostly follows the same path from site to site. It's mostly softcore teasing and masturbation. I'm not for sure if the hardcore number is high since several of the hardcore scenes I had seen on here were on the Renna Ryan site.

Picture sets have a viewing option of 1500x933 or vice versa and 4000x26xx or vice versa. These pictures are very good, look to be professional shot so without zips, you're going to need to be ready to right click, save as on the ones you like.

The webcam videos are decent quality, look to be in the 360-480p range and are entertaining.

It's worth noting that several of these models, Bryci, Talia especially, have very good personalities and can pull off these 40ish minute webcam shows without a hitch. I still haven't seen a live webcam show, but it's more based on me never having a chance to sit down and watch one, so these archived ones are a nice addition.

As a whole, the network averages over 1 update per day. In the most recent months, there are these numbers.
January 1-28: 39 updates.
December 2012: 47 updates.
November 2012: 39 updates.

So it's an active network as you can see. I will touch on the no zips one last time since I think the Hunter Leigh site shows the downside of no zips. It has no videos, 24 photo sets and no zip downloads. She's a very pretty/cute model, but without anything to download, I probably won't visit it for more than a few views of pictures with nothing left to show for the membership to it.

I do think this network as a whole is good though. It helps that I really like Bryci and Talia Shepard. Having their videos in a high number like the network has offsets the cons. I don't think Renna's site would have helped or hurt the score any since it did look to be relatively small. If memory serves me right it only had 2 pages of videos, 2 of photos and maybe with her pregnancy she didn't want the content posted anymore.

I'm going a bit high on the score based on liking the Bryci site so much. The network is worth a join if you like solo models and especially if you prefer videos.

I did originally have some issues with logging into the website, but after reaching out to the webmaster, we finally got it resolved.

Bryci.com has great content, and is frequently updated. The additional bonus of having access to other models (ie Katie Banks) is a definite plus, and the pricing is quite fair given the quality of the content you get.

5

As the webmaster, James, has said, there is no longer regional billing which is great news.

Bryci has amassed many HC videos since I've been a member - there's now over 30 with her having sex or giving blowjobs. Really great work. The majority of updates are now hardcore, but there's still a lot of solo stuff.

The only cons are the lack of zips, and the download speeds seem pretty slow, too.

See my Bella Pass review for in-depth thoughts on the network as a whole.

A note on Bella Network's piracy policy: Bella Network has a very strict piracy policy. They are extremely clear with this when you join. Sometimes legitimate members MIGHT get blocked - Bella have have made improvements to their customer service so that this can easily be investigated and rectified.

Bottom Line:

Iíll cut to the chase and say this is one of the best amateur solo model websites I have ever joined.

It has all the benefits of a solo model website (personality, insight into the model etc) while being part of a slick, regularly updated network.

Membership includes access to the following bonus sites:

Katie Banks - very similar to Bryci, with content being softcoreTalia Shepard - youíll probably like Talia if you like Bryci - softcoreHunter Leigh - beautiful model, relatively new. Nudity but no toys
Lexi Mason - extremely petite, relatively new to BellaAva Dawn - site no longer updating but has over 50 videos
Monroe Lee - super-curvy but site no longer updating

If you like Bryci, Talia Shepard and Katie Banks are from the same mould. Bryciís site is currently the only one with hardcore content, but both Talia and Katieís sites are comparable size-wise to Bryciís.

You can browse content from the whole network, or just Bryciís site using a drop down in the top right. You also have a very good search function where you can search by niche or by site.

Bryci has the usual sections for photos and video content, but in addition to this:

BIO: A hugely comprehensive biography. Features her essential statistics but also a very, very in-depth profile with information about her and her site.

CANDIDS: 71 candid galleries featuring Bryci. Some are her out and about or on holiday, many are self-shot pics featuring her in various states of undress.

BLOG: Regularly updated and from what I can tell, actually written by Bryci. Includes personal updates, previews of forthcoming galleries etc, and various candid photos.

BABECHAT: Video web chat featuring models from Bella Network. Bryci doesnít seem to be on the schedule, but Talia Shepard and Katie Banks make frequent appearances. She might be just taking a few weeks off, though, as there are plenty of videos of her in the archive.

WALLS: Lots and lots of stylised wallpapers.

PHOTOS:

Currently 308 galleries, approximately 80 photos each. If you hover over the gallery thumbnails they animate to show a sample of images inside. You can sort galleries by most recent or by name.

All images are downloadable, feature a small, translucent watermark and can either be viewed at 1500px or 4000px. Zips are not available, and batch download programmes are prohibited, which is a big mark against the site as itís hugely time-consuming to download images. You canít right-click thumbnails and download link because the high-res images are placed onto a web page, so youíd download this, not the image. It makes the concept of even downloading a sample of images quite a bewildering prospect. The majority of the points deducted from giving the site a perfect score are because of this, and Iím not even a huge photo collector.

Currently there are no hardcore galleries. Most galleries feature Bryci enjoying her own company in the form of strip-tease and/or masturbation with or without toys. Sheís extremely charismatic in front of the camera and oozes confidence. Most updates are shot in and around the house in the bedroom, bathroom etc, but any updates outside are well-lit and still very polished.

VIDEO:

Currently 341 videos including webchat archives and behind-the-scenes. The video pages again feature animating thumbnails, but the animation generally only shows the first part of the video. Webchat archives and BTS are mixed in with the standard videos which is a minor niggle. You can either stream a Flash video (skipping to any part as it loads) or download the video in a number of sizes/formats:

* As of March 2013, WMV is no longer being added, but it is still available on older updates

Videos are excellently shot. The majority are softcore with Bryci stripping and playing with toys or masturbating, recent videos feature hardcore. Currently there are six hardcore videos (since March) so although thereís not too much at the moment, itís being added frequently so will build up quickly.

The first two were artistically shot (in the dark or behind shower curtain), and although and the next was poorly lit, the others are well shot. Most hardcore has so far been POV, but the most recent had a version shot POV, and one from a second camera. Bryciís foray into hardcore is confident and assertive, and although already impressive, Iím sure technically the videos will improve in terms of lighting, angles etc as more and more content is added.

Most videos are in the region of 10-15 minutes long. Webcam videos are also mixed in with video updates and are around an hour long.

SUMMARY:

Bryci is wonderful, and her site does her justice. Thereís a lot of bonus content on her site, and plenty of relevant bonus sites youíll like if you like Bryci. The difficulty of saving images is a big mark against the site, while most other criticisms are minor at best.

9

- Bryci is a sensual, brunette model who excels at posing, teasing and may be the best solo masturbation model I've seen in a few years.
- The site itself is pretty big, but not all scenes are masturbation, quite a few BTS, non-nude talking, will list the numbers in BL.
- Archive has webcam archived videos.
- From what I can see, all videos on the site are available in 1980x1080. Multiple video download options on all videos except webcam archives.
- Download speed is relatively good, but you will occasionally run into a slower moving file. I can max out at 3.8 MB/s, most will download around 3.0 MB/s, but a few were in the 1.6-1.9 MB/s range.
- Pictures are nice, but I had a few problems with them which will be in cons.
- Comes with 7 other similarly themed sites, the size of each greatly varies and I will do a review of the overall network separately to get all the numbers in.
- Price isn't too bad for the quality and especially if you like the models.

Cons:

- Pictures aren't zipped. This could be a major con to picture lovers since they have very high quality pictures 2662x4000.
- Download limit. Normally this would annoy the hell out of me, but I don't download near as much as I used to. It's listed as 9 GB per day, Webmaster says 10 GB, the most I've downloaded in a day is 5 GB, so I've had no problems with it. And since the terms say no scripts are allowed, I'm guessing you can't use a bulk image downloader for the pictures. It isn't being a problem for me though I thought it should be mentioned. One workaround without breaking the rules is to download the smaller quality videos, which I will get to in the BL.

Bottom Line:

Bryci has to be considered a serious contender for top solo model. The one negative some will find is she has implants, but I've never minded those either unless they are badly out of proportion. Hers aren't. The site is full of high quality content as well. I'm going to focus this next part on the numbers and qualities available since there is a download limit.

I'm counting 329 video scenes as of 1/27/13. There are 5 types of video scenes. Standard masturbation, Behind the Scenes, teasing, talking, webcam archive. The BTS and talking ones aren't something I'm going to download since there is a download limit, so those can be taken out of the equation. Her teasing scenes are short in length, 4-6 minutes usually, but if the attire she has on it is your thing, these are worth downloading. She has one scene in a white thin dress, in the shower, that is great as well as a workout tease scene that I loved.

The scenes I downloaded were masturbation, some teasing and the webcam archive. There's roughly 110 masturbation and/or tease scenes, it's hard to put a number on the webcam scenes that involve masturbation or nudity without watching them all, but several I've watched do have masturbation in them. It almost looks like Bryci may have started out as a tease type model. The videos date back to January 2009, so that's 4 years of content and plenty of time for her to have evolved from tease to masturbation. Most of the first year of updates are of the tease and BTS variety.

I know there are people who like the talking videos, but I'm sticking with my standard on those, I don't want to pay for a video of a woman answering questions. It seems to be a whole section of "Ask Bryci" videos. There also is an Amazon button so you can buy presents for Bryci, which I've laughed at dating back to Raven Riley. One more time, I pay to see your porn, not to have an option to pay for your gifts.

The video download options do vary since 1/5, maybe 1/4 are webcam, these are in Flash only, but you can download them.

As you can see, the downloading options are very good and I personally download the Flash ones since it limits the size of the file, while giving me still good quality. From what I see in the members area you have all these options on all videos except the webcam archives.

The pictures are overall a disappointment. I've always removed points for no zip files and have removed 5 points from this review for it since I think the pictures add a lot to a solo site. I guess it's okay to download one at a time if you want to make you own set, but I would much prefer a zip option to download the whole set. It seems to go into a hollow debate of why have 4000 high end pictures if the members can't download the whole set. While I'm sure there are some who wouldn't want to download an entire set of photos at that high of quality since it would be a fairly big file. I like the option of having the option to download if I want them though.

Navigation is very easy, site design is nice and clean. There also are webcam shows, but I haven't watched any. Each thing you would need from navigation is in a toolbar towards the top of the screen, the only thing I would add is an option to filter out BTS scenes and separate webcam archive, but those are minor complaints since the title of each video says, "BTS" or "Webcam" so you don't have to guess at them.

Where Bryci earns the high score is in her performances. She's quite confident, seems to love teasing and works the camera as well as dare I say, a young Eve Angel. The eye contact with the camera, the "I know you're watching" expressions, is the best I've seen since 2006 Eve Angel. That alone keeps me interested in her content. She also seems to be pretty natural in her poses unlike a lot of Euro glam models. She shows a fun and playful side as well.

You do get access to Bella Pass Network which includes 6 other solo models and one other site that is a multi-model site. I won't go into those since I want to review the network as a whole, separately, but Bryci does seem to be the star of the network.

Bryci's site itself seems to update with video or photos 10 times a month. There also is a blog if you're interested in that and it is very active from what I saw of it. In January alone, there were 11 new entries in the blog.

One last part on the download limit. Downloading Flash files, I downloaded 12 videos earlier for a total of 2 GB. So considering I don't want the BTS or talking videos, I should be able to get most of the scenes I want without breaking the download limit.

Overall, download limits and no picture zips, notwithstanding, I would highly recommend it to solo fans.

10

I hadn't ever seen this model or site until the review recently posted. Since I like, even usually prefer, solo models, it made me take notice.

On the TBP review in the notes over to the side it says, "Owner verifies that there are no restrictions on Europeans joining these sites." My question is, is this talking about with the download limit? It's not that I mind since I don't know if Europeans have slower internet connections or if the sites servers are maybe in Europe and that makes less/more stress on the servers. I'm mainly just trying to clarify that the restriction the note is talking about is on the download limit and there isn't some other restriction. I can work with 9 GB/day limit, so it doesn't bother me much and would give this network a try as long as I know there isn't other restrictions.

11

Bryci is simply gorgeous! She poses in many different ways and looks great in them all!

Cons:

As other have already indicated, the webmaster is terrible. If you exceed the down limit, (which is not really that high (9GB per 24 hour), with some on the videos at over 1GB you can hit 9.0GB pretty fast), you will be banned from the site. It indicates for 1 week, but you may not get back on at all. The best thing to do is just request a refund from the subscription company (cc bill).

The worst part is the webmaster will not respond (even if you are trying resolve the issue). The subscription company (like ccbill) will try to correct the problem, but you will never hear from the webmaster.

I rating the site a 70 (all because of Bryci). The other models in the site are attractive, but not to the level of Bryci. The grade would have been considerably higher if the webmaster was not so bad!

Bottom Line:

As I mentioned, Bryci is a natuarl beauty. It is just such a shame that the webmaster is so bad. I can see the setting of a limit, but not responding to inquires, especially when you try to resolve the problem is not excusable!

There are so many other sites that offer great looking models. Stay away from this one, and if you join, be really careful (read all the terms, I know like anyone ever does that?)!

12

they closed my account after i have downloaded only 1,5gb, it's insane! in the term of their service, they declare" we have a 9 gigs per day limit" they talk nonsense. The webmaster did not never answer to my message!

13

- Bryci is incredible hot with a great body
- Lots of content, good balance of pics and vids
- Good value with lots of other girls too

Cons:

Awful webmaster. I had problems with my ADSL and my IP number was blocked. No problem I thought, and emailed the webmaster. He basically called me a liar and a thief and wouldn't humour me at all. I understand the need to protect content, but the way it was dealt with was totally over the top. I explained what happened, even listed the 10-or-so videos I had downloaded to prove only I had been a member but he wouldn't even listen. A huge shame as it's a great site

Bottom Line:

An incredible website but let down by an incredibly arrogant webmaster. It was a huge shame because it was definitely the kind of website I could see myself joining and rejoining constantly.

14

An interesting development in the Solo-Girl Model world is the marketing of groups of models in package deals

Bryci.com is the center of a group of sites being marketing as Bella Pass - all are busty models:

Bryci.com
KatieBanks.com
AvaDawn.comTaliaShepard.com (Talia's a former Twisty's Treat and the only natural-boobed model in the group - for now anyway)
MonroeLee.com (still in development)

Are the sites available for one price with the Bella Pass - $34.95/month for the group or $79.95/3 months

I don't know if Ava's site is still active, frankly. Monroe's site is "in development", which means there really isn't any content there. Talia's site was recently stripped of 3/4 of the content when the current webmaster found that the old photo sets were messing with his servers somehow and the old vids & cam show archives were in violation of a new Bella Pass rule against sex toys or masturbation. So expect these sites to be fairly mild.

15

As a long time member of Bryci.com, I felt I should make my first review of her website. It's amazing! They really put the customer first in all that they do.

The site updates five times per week and the images are top notch, 4000 pixel wide is the largest size. Their videos are also huge, 1080p in size.

Bryci is in her forums daily talking and she blogs almost every day as well so she is very, very active. She has a great sense of humor it seems. She cares about her member base and remembers them in cam shows and what not, which is appreciated. Always good to not just be a dollar sign in the eyes of a model.

I signed up the first week this site went live and while it was slow in content because it was brand new but on their one year anniversary, they had 129 photo galleries, 157 videos in place. That's 5.5 updates per week, or 22 updates per month. I don't know of any solo model sites that come even close to Bryci.com to be honest.

Cons:

I wish they offered the sets in zip format for download, but as they reasoned, when they do, there are always those that download the zip and post in trader forums. That hurts them of course so I understand them not supporting zips.

A lot of sites don't support zips for the same reason.

Bottom Line:

Bottom line, I wish all sites were as good as Bryci.com. She doesn't play with toys or do things some other girls do, but there is this level of class about her.. you just can't imagine her going further.

They created a new benchmark with their website, once that I wish others would try and beat. Until then, Bryci.com remains the best solo model website I personally have ever joined. I was a member of seven sites at the time I joined Bryci.com. I am now a member of two, Bryci.com and Brazzers. The other sites just don't cut it in comparison.

16

- Bryci is definitely a VERY hot girl. A total knockout, like the cute girl next door who went away to live in the city and came back home for Christmas with tighter clothes and a huge fantasy boob job.
- Images are high resolution (approx. 2000 pixels).
- Videos are available in multiple formats (WMV, XVid, iPhone, PSP, etc.) at resolutions up to 1920x1080, with no DRM or apparent download limits.
- All content is exclusive and original.
- Content added frequently (5 times per week).

Cons:

- Limited content as of March 2009 - it was a fairly new site. I would guess (from memory 6 weeks on) that there were approx. 30-40 photo sets and about 12-15 videos at the time.
- Everything is very much softcore - pretty much boobs only. Which is fine - they are mesmerizing boobs. But you can't help but long to see more of her body. Very rare tantalizing glimpses of her waxed kitty only make it frustrating for the viewer.
- The videos are a little amateurishly shot, their action tends to be a bit tame, and they are a little short in duration.
- Image galleries aren't available as zip files: you have to download each image separately. I gave up after three or four galleries, and cancelled my account soon thereafter.

Bottom Line:

Bryci is absolutely gorgeous - no doubt about it. To my mind, one of the hottest girls I've seen in years. They're adding more content to the site at a reasonable pace, so after a few months I would consider re-joining IF (and ONLY if) they were to provide downloadable zip archives of the photoshoots. And if Bryci was to reveal just a little more, that would sweeten the deal even further.

17

- Hunter is stunning with a great figure and beautiful complexion
- Immediate access to Bella Pass including six solo sites
- Decent quality content, consistent throughout the site
- Regular, reliable updates with previews of forthcoming updates
- Updates are dated (including recent updates in Preview area)
- Easy navigation either via Bella Pass or her own site
- You seem to stay logged in without username/password prompts
- CCBill with no pre-checked cross-sells

See my Bella Pass review for in-depth thoughts on the network as a whole.

Cons:

Points marked with * don't bother me personally:

- Not much content at the moment, particularly videos

- Updates not as frequent as other Bella Pass sites
- Regional pricing
- Content not as high quality as other Bella Pass sites
- Misses features such as candids, blog, behind the scenes etc
- No ZIP files for photo galleries
- Movies are currently just videos of photo sessions
- Automatically generated username/password*
- Download limit of 20gb per 24 hour hour period*
- Hunter has fake boobs*

See my Bella Pass review for in-depth thoughts on the network as a whole.

Bottom Line:

After Bryci, Katie Banks and Talia Shepard, Hunter Leighís website might come as bit of a disappointment. Her site is a bit cast in the shadows of the holy trinity of those three and although her site has regular updates, the lionís share of updates across the network are for Bryci, Katie Banks and Talia Shepard, so the gulf of difference looks to increase over time rather than decrease.

Navigation-wise it is identical to all the other Bella Pass sites, which is to say itís excellent and very refined. With your membership you get access to the whole Bella Pass which includes:

Bryci - biggest site on the network, now featuring HC contentKatie Banks - looks fairly similar to Bryci, 2nd largest in networkTalia Shepard - similar to Katie again, frequent updates
Lexi Mason - extremely petite, relatively new to BellaAva Dawn - site no longer updating but has over 50 videos
Monroe Lee - super-curvy but site no longer updating

I think Hunter is actually one of the most beautiful on Bella Pass. She is slim, and although she has fake boobs, they're pretty natural looking.

Currently there are 1,683 photos across 28 galleries, and 3 videos. Out of all the Bella Pass websites (updating and not), her site is the smallest. Updates are approximately weekly.

When you log in, you land on the Bella Pass memberís homepage which displays updates from across all sites. At the top thereís a drop-down you can select to go directly to Hunter Leighís membership area, or any of the other models/sites in the network.

You can view updates by type (photos, videos, etc), or search by category and/or site. The navigation is incredibly refined, particularly when you factor in the amount of content across the entire network.

Currently thereís three videos. The run time ranges from around 2- to 4-minutes which, again, doesn't compare favourably to other sites in the network (normally around 10-minutes). From the video homepage, you can hover over the thumbnails and theyíll show a slideshow of frames from the video by means of a preview.

Movies are basically videos of photo sessions, with her moving from pose-to-pose with the camera flash going off. Hopefully now that Hunter has made the move to Bella Pass, the video content will improve. Quality is decent, all videos are downloadable and there is a Flash video embedded onto the site which you can skip to any point in while it loads.

* WMV videos are likely not to be added to future updates in line with other Bella Pass sites.

Gallery-wise, thereís currently 28 galleries. From the gallery homepage, like the videos, you can hover over the thumbnail and it'll animate to show a general gist of what's inside.

Galleries are around 80 to 100 pictures large, but zips aren't available. Most galleries have the option to view/save images as 1500px and 4000px on their longest side, but a few (presumably older ones) only have the 1500px option Ė they're in the minority, though.

Photos are definitely this siteís strength with the galleries being fantastically well shot, and Hunter looking effortlessly beautiful in front of the camera. Sets are shot in a variety of locations ranging from bedrooms to bathrooms, and also venturing outside, but not in public. All are well lit and great quality, with images watermarked in colour with the site logo (approximately 350-400px wide, but non-intrusively placed). Her site is a lot softer than Bryci or Katie's sites and focuses on strip-tease (no toys/masturbation/spreading) but she is fully nude and shows everything.

Beyond photos and videos, thereís currently not much else in the way of content. If you are joining Hunterís site as a solo site, you will miss features like behind the scenes, candids and webcam archives as features like this to me make an amateur site an amateur site as you get to know the model Ė currently thereís not much opportunity to do this on Hunterís site.

Although Hunter herself can more than hold her own against the other models in the network, currently her site canít. My review probably sounds a bit negative, but as sheís new to the network, my score and opinion will go up as the amount of content does. I just hope her site isn't overlooked in favour of other Bella Pass sites.

Currently, thereís not as much content, fewer updates and less features.

I think in a few months her site will become more self-sufficient in terms of updates because it is regularly being updated. I think once this happens, the score will climb by at least 5.

Add some Ďpersonalityí to the site by means of more natural videos, candids (if sheís comfortable with this) or behind-the-scenes footage, and the score will probably climb by another 5.

At the moment Hunterís site is a great bonus site, but if youíre joining for just Hunter, her site will probably leave you wanting more

A note on Bella Network's piracy policy: Bella Network has a very strict piracy policy. They are extremely clear with this and spell it out in black and white prior to joining, in the confirmation email, and on the site. Occasionally legitimate members MIGHT get blocked - Bella have listened to member feedback and have made improvements to their customer service so that this can easily be investigated and rectified.

Bottom Line:

Katie has an incredible body, lots of enthusiasm and her site, like all in the Bella Network, is slick, high quality but still has the character of a amateur solo model site.

Once you're in the member's area, you see content and updates across the whole Network. You can filter by photos, videos, behind the scenes and archives, and sort by date or name.

You can also choose to view updates from a single site (ie, just Katie's) and there's also a search function where you can filter by category, or search by site. It's the same navigation style as Tia Ling's website, but it has been set up properly with content correctly categorised.

Currently the site advertises 13,738 photos, and 287 videos (51,445 photos and 935 videos across the network). On average, there's at least an update a day across the whole network, a consistent history of updates, and probably on average an update every 2-3 days on Katie's site alone including bonus content.

Bella Network is the best network of solo websites I have ever been a member of.

Katie is a softcore model. Most content is shot in and around the Bella Network house, so often in the bedroom, bathroom etc. Content includes masturbation, extreme close-ups of her tits, between her legs etc. Often sets will be a strip tease and masturbation from normal outfits or lingerie, but there's also themed sets such as Wonderwoman, Mistress etc.

Across the top are the following options:

VIDEOS: Currently 117 videos. When you click into 'videos', there are 20 updates per page with a short description, running time, date added, member's rating and an animated thumbnail when you hover over it. Click into the update, and there is a very short and rather generic description with the option to add to favourites or view comments.

You can watch the video as a Flash video (which you can skip to any point in, even when loading), or can download in many, many different formats, including:

Video size ranges from around 100-500mb - a superb range of options. Most follow the usual striptease then play formula, but there's a lot of more specialised videos such as focusing on her (ample!) boobs.

The most annoying aspect of the animated thumbnails is that they only reflect the first few minutes, so don't really show you much about the video. The best way to preview the video is with the Flash video, but of course that involves extra clicks which all add up when you consider the amount of content.

The video section also includes behind the scenes videos.

ARCHIVE: Currently 138 webcam videos. Most a decent, if slightly grainy quality and have approximately an hour's running time. Videos are downloadable in Flash format (approximately 250mb).

PHOTOS: Currently 179 galleries, averaging around 100 photos. Galleries are arranged as 20 per page with a thumbnail, description and date. The thumbnail animates when you hover over it so you can get a gist of the gallery.

Click into a gallery, and pictures are arranged as thumbnails with 20 per page, a short description and the option to view photos as 1500px- or 4000px-wide when you click on thumbnails.

Zips aren't available due to piracy concerns, and you can't right-click thumbnails and 'save target as' because the full-size photo is on a webpage, not just a JPG on its own. There is a medium-sized translucent watermark on full size images.

This might seem an unusual complaint, but Katie has a large mole under on her left boob. From what I can tell this is photoshopped out of all photos, but obviously appears in vids.

BIO: Vital stats and a very impressive and in-depth, 800-word biography - not the usual banal "I like sex" (although of course this is touched upon).

BLOG: Frequently updated, and as far as I can tell, by Katie herself. This is also very in-depth, features previews and personal thoughts.

CANDIDS: Currently 139 galleries of varying sizes. Features trips to zoos etc, flashing in public and self-shoot topless/nude pics. Very impressive.

BABECHAT: Chatroom for Bella models. Katie Banks and Bryci both take part in chats every couple of days, normally at either 7pm or 9pm EST.

Also included is WALLPAPERS/FAN ART and BELLA WEBCAMS (live sex chat webcams).

BELLA NETWORK: If you like Katie, you'll love the other sites:

Bryci - biggest site on the network, comparable to KatieHunter Leigh - beautiful model, relatively new to Bella
Lexi Mason - extremely petite, relatively new to Bella
Talia Shephard - similar to Katie again, frequent updatesAva Dawn - site no longer updating but has over 50 videos
Monroe Lee - super-curvy but site no longer updating

This is a fantastic site, part of a fantastic network. Some might find some of the content network-wide a bit samey, but this is a high quality network with high quality models and a great mix of content, including great peeks into the model's lives via candids/BTS.

Bella Pass sites have a very clear but strict download policy. Be careful not to exceed their download limits. Improvements have been made to the network's customer service to deal with legitimate members who might accidentally get blocked (it hasn't happened to me yet on this membership term).

Bottom Line:

Talia Shepard is a curvy 28GG model, part of the massively impressive Bella Pass network to which you get immediate access. Her site is the third largest in the network and has 8,808 photos, and 208 videos (of which 45 are HD, 114 are webcam archive videos and 19 are behind the scenes footage).

Talia is a confident performer who does strip tease, masturbation with toys and soft lesbian action. She has also had a boob job with her site offering content both pre- and post-boob job with about 70% of the content being since the enlargement. I have to say I definitely preferred her before and she had good size boobs even before the enlargement. Obviously this is just personal preference, and the preview is clear enough for people to make their own decisions.

The site is extremely easy to navigate. Once you log in, the memberís homepage shows updates from across the entire network. You can go to just Taliaís member area by using a drop-down top right, or search and/or filter updates by site/update type at the top.

The content is divided into various categories in addition to the usual photo and video sections.

She has a blog which is constantly updated by Talia herself. Lots of candid snaps from her phone, updates from her life (whether sheís ill, going on a trip etc), and also personal blog posts (eg her favourite tweets from fans over the last week). Itís always good to see a blog on a solo site, but even more impressive to see itís actually updated.

BTS has behind the scenes footage from video and photo shoots. This is an impressive feature and shows Talia and the girls who often join her enjoying sessions.

Talia also takes part in video blogs. Thereís not a separate section for these, so youíll have to search for videos tagged with ĎVideo Blogí, but theyíre well worth watching, and, in addition to the blog, candids, behind the scenes footage and her Twitter feed, all give a great insight into the life of Talia. For me, this is a huge plus and surely helps build the model a huge following as Iím not alone in liking models beyond their physical attributes.

There are many thousands of photos on Taliaís website. All are downloadable, but you canít use batch downloaders and zip files are not available. Even for someone like me who doesnít download everything, the prospect of so many photos to download is quite bewildering (to the point Iíve only downloaded video content).

The gallery homepage has 20 galleries per page with thumbnails that animate on mouse-over to show a slideshow of photos inside. Inside, photos are arranged 20 to a page, and you have the option to toggle between showing photos at 4000px on their longest side, or low-fi 1500px.

You have the option to rate, add to favourites and comment. The date the gallery was added is shown along with a short description and the categories that apply to the gallery.

Pictures are well shot, include a small, unobtrusive watermark and often show excellent close-ups of various parts of Talia in various stages of undress or enjoying her own company.

Video content is similar. Again, videos are arranged 20 to a page and thumbnails animate to show a vague idea of what the video is about. You can watch a Flash version online, or can download an impressive number of formats and file sizes, including:

* As of March 2013, WMV is no longer being added as itís becoming a redundant file format, but it is still available on older updates

The videos are a good mix of striptease, masturbation with toys and soft lesbian-style action with Bryci and/or Katie Banks who, it has to be said, are all fairly similar looks-wise. Thereís nothing groundbreaking, but itís all very impressive and obviously car wash, whipped cream and mock BJs with dildo videos are popular for a reason and Talia ticks all of these boxes.

For photos and videos, the locations are varied. Many are bedroom, bathroom or anywhere else around the house. Thereís a few updates from the pool and a few vaguely public but nothing too outrageous in this respect.

Talia also takes part in Babe Chat, along with Katie Banks. Her shows are typically at 2pm EST which is a good time for European members as thatís early evening. Thereís a full archive of her shows, which are all downloadable as Flash files, each around an hour long. You can also watch them from an embedded flash file on the site, which you can skip to any point in while it loads.

Overall, this is an impressive, polished website with a lot of content. It comes with access to Bella Pass which is a very impressive network including at least two active girls who are very similar to Talia. If you donít care for bonus sites, then Taliaís website is more than self-sufficient with lots of videos, photos, frequent updates and lots of bonus content which gives you a real insight into Talia herself.

If you've been seeing samples of Talia's site content over the past several months and wanted to join this site to get it, don't bother.

Talia switched webmasters and the new webmaster just stripped the site of the vast majority of the content that had been there - 75% or more of the photo sets, 15 out of 16 of the Ask Talia v-blogs, all but one of the archived web-cams, most of the vids, etc.

I'm sure that the site will develop new content over time, but I wouldn't recommend joining this site for 6 months or so - it's been stripped so thoroughly that it would be hard to develop a good amount of new content before then.
